World Affairs And Beyond

On a warm afternoon, I found myself walking down the bustling streets of our town, heading towards the familiar spot where Baba Jee sat. The small, weathered corner was his chosen place, where he greeted those seeking his wisdom. Today, I had a pressing question on my mind, one that had been bothering me for a while, and I needed answers. Approaching Baba Jee, I greeted him with a respectful nod and a warm smile. He acknowledged my presence with a serene look in his eyes. With curiosity brimming, I decided to broach the topic that had been bothering me. "Baba Jee," I began, "I came to see you again because I couldn't help but wonder why you avoided my question about Palestine the last time we spoke." Baba Jee looked at me, his eyes reflecting a deep sense of contemplation. Then, in his calm and soothing voice, he responded, "Child, I didn't avoid your question.

Souls meet in this realm,  Confined in earthly vessels, dwell,  In bodies, our love constrained,  This union, a heart's silent refrain. Each touch, a glimpse of grace,  Love's yearning, a timeless chase,  Yet, these bodies, barriers they seem,  Two souls imprisoned in a dream. The real rendezvous, untethered and pure,  In the realm of souls, we endure,  Love's dance, unbound and free,  Infinite love, our destiny. Where bodies fade, souls unite,  In the realm of love's pure light,  No barriers, no chains to bind,  Two souls, forever unified. In that sacred space, we'll find,  Love's essence, one of a kind,  Souls in harmony, forever closely tied,  The union of hearts, love undefined. © Sobia Nosheen (20th October 2023)

We humans, the silly creatures that we are,  spend all our lives in search of our destiny;  while destiny is what happens to us each day along the way.  All the good and the bad, the happy and the sad.

  You do not have to sacrifice your dignity for your destiny. If it is destiny, it will come. So do not worry and be happy. Nothing can take away or keep away from you what is meant to be yours. Be it good or bad.
